Eat It?

Do ppl mean his offloads when they say his ball skills, cos if they do he is like a poor mans oversized Hock lol.

I have never seen him do anything another player cant do.

one game one moment off the top of my head the challenge cup semi at widnes

You clearly haven't seen much of him then in the ten years or so he's played in SL. Maybe at the end of his career but ball skills that Gareth ( Mr Niceguy ) Hock ( or hardly anyone else for that matter ) will never aspire to match.

Yeah I've got to say Solomona is/was one of the most skill full & dynamic players to have played SL, and has produced some astonishing feats in his time

Now he doesn't look fit for a pub team and I'm amazed he played.

Did you see him scoring 3 tries against Wigan for the Bulls in that 2007 play-off game ?

Since when was having ball skills and a few injury layoffs an excuse to become a fat ****?

Gareth hock is a forward with ball skills, and had 2 years out from the game, and believe it or not....he didn't become morbidly obese.

yeah, i'm afraid he can't do those things anymore because, in case it escaped your attention he's put on about 50 pounds, all round his waist.

It must be terrible for his health.

You'd have thought he'd have gone running or cycling when he'd been off injured with a broken leg to lose the weight... Oh yeah

You'd have thought he'd adjust his caloric intake accordingley for less energy expenditure.

I have, and so have many other Wakefield fans. He displayed some fantastic skills at Wakefield. In his last season he played with all sorts of injuiries and helped keep us up.

Thats because he broke his leg pre season.

Solomona is naturally a big guy, with a 4 month period were training was virtually non existant due to his injury its inevitable he would put some weight on. The major difference is a guy like Solomona, in comparision to some of the people who watch the game (and no doubt contributing to this pointless thread) who are spherical, can shift that weight when they have the chance to.

Some?

He would put [i[sizesome[/size[/i weight on?

It looks like he's retired, sat around in a beater all day and lived from KFC megabuckets and mr kiplings cakes 24/7.

No he was a fully fit player capable of running a marathon and hitting the gym, go for a bike ride, swim the channel anything he wanted except play rugby for being a drug user. Unlike Solo who was just injured.

Mark Calderwood scored 3 in the same game. Doesn't prove anything does it.
